Aight so I have an AMD A64 3200+. It's 2.0GHz stock. I've got it to 2.35GHz but it isn't stable. Prime95 lasts about 2 hours until it crashes and my BF2 keeps freezing and crashing my computer.

Now, I have crappy DDR400 RAM. It only runs at 166MHz anyways for whatever reason, but I put it down to 133MHz for the OC, so it should be around 166MHz if I could get the FSB that high. Right, so, I can't...

I'm at like 2.27GHz right now, that's stable..but anything 2.3 or higher is not.

RAM timings are 2.5-2-2-6 (at 150MHz).

HTT link is like 940MHz or so (set at 800 for the OC). Spread spectrum is disabled (I read somewhere to disable that, I don't even know what it's for but mmkay).

Temps are fine, 35*C or so at idle and like 43*C or so at load.

I tried upping the voltage one step higher than stock (like ~1.47v).

So what gives here? I hope I didn't just get a lemon. Some people on here have these chips up around 2.9GHz.

I have my voltage set at 1.5 (I think), FSB at 235, multiplier at x10, memory a 2.5 - 3 - 3- 6 (but you put it in the BIOS as 2.5 - 3 - 6 - 3), I think my divider is either 1:1 or 1:2, leaning more towards 2.

I'm running at 48-49C, but I keep Folding@Home running when I'm not gaming (=100% CPU).
